    Sweet grab, there.

    I can pull a 1-second sinpe in my sleep, though- or even when I'm offline.

    Where's the thrill in that, LM?!?!?!

    Don't you enjoy the adrenelin rush as you are waiting for that clock tick and knowing that if you don't hit the enter key at just the right moment that you will fail?!?!?!?! And then having the shear satisfaction of knowing that you did it and you won!?!?!?!?!?!

    Autosnipers can't pull a one second snipe, because they usually add 2 seconds to your lead for some reason. So, that's a minimum of 1+2=3. But they are very useful and reliable.



    Spinaker, this is the grab of the year! image

    Good point. That lag is called "buffer time" on esnipe, I believe. I think you can set buffer time to 1-second (meaning a 2-second snipe, I guess), but they recommend you use a slightly longer buffer time. I usually use 2 seconds (and therefore a 3-second snipe, as in your example). That's good enough for me.
